This is the Internet, and I know how the Internet works: lukewarm isn’t allowed. Milquetoast is death. The hottest takes get the most reaction. It makes sense, then, that just about every speed bump (which lasted about...a week) in this fairly smooth Bruins 2019-2020 campaign has been treated like a miles-deep crater that is going to swallow your car whole.
How, oh how, will this team recover from a week of bad games? Their first in six weeks!?
Case in point: Saturday’s loss to the Capitals, while frustrating, gave the Bruins 3 out of 4 points in back-to-back games against a division rival on the road and the #1 team in the NHL at home.
